Amber · the EU has product requirements for this line (check which ones apply)The product enters the European Union duty-free.
Recommended action: make sure origin can be proven, because without proof of origin the preference does not apply and the MFN duty is paid.
Electric accumulators › Lithium-ion (CN 8507 60 00) enters the European Union duty-free today under the EU-Mercosur Agreement, instead of 2.7% without it. There is no quota, so it applies to any quantity. Data as of 31 October 2026, from the EU-Mercosur Interim Trade Agreement and the Combined Nomenclature 2026.
1 · Classification
The product in the three nomenclatures
This sheet is built on the EU tariff line 8507 60 00, which is the code the importer declares in the European Union. In Argentina it corresponds to NCM 8507.60.00. The classification should be confirmed by a customs broker.
| Nomenclature | Code | Version | Official description |
|---|---|---|---|
| NCM (Argentina) | 8507.60.00 | NCM in force 2026 | De iones de litio |
| CN (European Union) | 8507 60 00 | CN 2026 (annex in CN 2013: 8507 60 00) | Lithium-ion |
| HS (worldwide) | 8507.60 | Harmonized System | Electric accumulators, including separators therefor, whether or not rectangular (including square) |
2 · Duty and schedule
The duty today and when it reaches zero
The preferential duty today is 0%. The MFN duty, without the agreement, is 2.7%. It has been at zero from the start of the agreement (1 May 2026). On the Argentine side, the export duty today is 0% (Decree 305/2025).
Importing this product from Europe into Argentina
The agreement also lowers what Argentina charges on European goods. Appendix 2-A-2 mirrors the one used in the rest of this sheet. It sets the duty Argentina charges on EU goods entering the country, and lowers it on the same timetable. For an EU supplier selling this product to Argentina, this is the duty that applies.

How this line was reached. The annex writes its list in NCM 2012, while imports are declared in the edition in force. This line did not change between the two editions (the official correlation tables do not list it). All of this covers only the duty. If the purchase falls within a quota, an import licence is also needed (it is below, in the authorisations block). What other Argentine agencies require for entry is below, as the VUCE publishes it. Which ones apply depends on the SIM subdivision declared, set by the customs broker.
Argentine agencies involved in the import
The duty comes from the agreement, the rest is required by each agency. The VUCE assigns 13 interventions of other agencies to the import of this position. Each one is shown with the agency’s own text, in Spanish and unabridged, and with the conditions under which it applies. Several only apply in certain cases (wooden packaging, used goods, goods for consumption), and each one says so.

Year-by-year table and how it is calculated
| From | Stage | Ad valorem | Specific (€) | Applies |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 May 2026 | 1 of 1 (year 0) | 0% | — | Duty-free |
How it is calculated. This line has been duty-free since the first day of the agreement. It is already at zero.
Additional refund. Certified organic products, products bearing the Alimentos Argentinos una elección natural seal and products with a registered designation of origin or geographical indication get an additional 0.5% (Decree 1341/2016, Arts. 3 to 5, maintained by Art. 11 of Decree 557/2023). They do not add up: a product that meets more than one condition still gets 0.5% (Resolution 90-E/2017, Art. 9), and each condition is proven with a certificate per shipment (Arts. 1 and 2).
On the Argentine side. Today's export duty is set by Decree 305/2025, Art. 1 and Annex (IF-2025-37185796-APN-SSPI#MEC), and it is the rate the VUCE applies (checked on 17 October 2026).
The statistical unit. In the SIM, the statistical unit for this line is the unit, according to ARCA's Integrated Tariff.
Duty savings calculator
EU import duty is calculated on the customs value, which in practice is the CIF value (goods plus freight and insurance to the EU port). Enter what you export in a year, in euros or in dollars.
With the agreement it already enters duty-free. You save €2,700 a year against the MFN duty.
Only have the FOB value? Estimate the customs value
The EU customs value is, in practice, the CIF value (FOB plus freight and insurance to the EU port). Enter the three amounts and carry the result up.
Estimated customs value: €4,500
3 · Tariff-rate quota and access
This line has no tariff-rate quota
The agreement opens no tariff-rate quota (TRQ) for this line. The preference therefore applies to every shipment, with no volume limit and no quota procedure.
Where to check it
- Section B of Annex 2-A lists the 23 quotas the European Union opens for Mercosur. None covers this line.
| Period | Volume | Status |
|---|
If the product may fall under one of them, write to us and we will review it.
4 · Rules of origin
Whether the product qualifies as originating
To benefit from the preference the product has to be originating. The applicable rule is the one for 8506.10 – 8512.20, which requires that one of the options it gives be met; not all are needed. Answer the questions to see whether the product qualifies.
Materials questionnaire
Only the questions the case needs are shown. The result applies the Annex 3-B rule for this line.
Check the materials one by one with the origin assistant, with their tariff code and their share of the price.
The rule as published, the tolerance and the proof of origin
The rule, as published in the agreement: «CTH; or MaxNOM 50 % (EXW).»
Tolerance. Article 3.5 tolerates materials that do not meet the rule up to 10% of the ex-works price.
Cumulation. The agreement allows bilateral cumulation: originating materials of the other Party count as originating (Chapter 3 of the iTA).
How it is proven. Origin is proven with the exporter's statement on origin (Annex 3-C). At the start, the transitional certificate of origin of Annex 3-D also applies (notice 2026/875).
Edition. Annex 3-B is written in the 2017 Harmonized System and this sheet uses the edition in force. At four and six digits they almost always match. If the product changed heading between editions, the rule should be confirmed with the customs broker.
For now the certificate of origin is still accepted. Until 1 May 2029 the European Union also accepts the traditional certificate of origin, besides the exporter's own statement on origin. In the Spanish text: «Durante un período no superior a 3 (tres) años a partir de la fecha de entrada en vigor del presente Acuerdo, la Unión Europea aceptará también como declaración de origen un «certificado de origen» que indique que los productos importados en la Unión Europea cumplen los requisitos de origen establecidos en el presente Acuerdo.» (iTA, Annex 3-D, paragraph 1). The period may be extended by 2 more years at Mercosur's request.
5 · Health, technical and labelling requirements
What the product must meet to enter the EU
This line is not on the veterinary border control list of Regulation 2021/632. Nor is it in Annex XI of the plant health regulation, which requires the certificate for plant products. The Commission's portal (Access2Markets) assigns 5 EU product requirements to this line (technical, labelling or marketing rules). It assigns them to the whole line, and the table lists each one with its act and the link to check whether it applies to the product.

6 · Authorisations and registrations
What must be approved before exporting
The European Union's list of authorised countries and its approval of establishments apply to products of animal origin. They do not apply to this product.
7 · Cross-cutting EU regulations
EUDR, CBAM and safeguards
These are the rules that stop a shipment for reasons unrelated to the duty. Neither of the two covers this line, according to the list of codes in the annex of each regulation.
EUDR · deforestation
Prohibits placing on the EU market products linked to deforestation. It covers seven commodities (cattle, cocoa, coffee, oil palm, rubber, soya and wood). It does not cover this line, because it is not in the list of codes of Annex I.
Source: Regulation (EU) 2023/1115, Annex ICBAM · carbon border adjustment
Charges at the EU border for the carbon embedded in certain energy-intensive goods (cement, electricity, fertilisers, iron and steel, aluminium and some chemicals). It does not cover this line, because it is not in the list of codes of Annex I.
Source: Regulation (EU) 2023/956, Annex ISafeguards
Chapter 9 of the agreement allows either Party to suspend the preference for a product if increased imports cause injury to its industry. It is a mechanism, not a list, and nothing applies unless a specific measure has been imposed. Check in TARIC whether any measure is in force for 8507 60 00.

| 31st | Uruguay | €408,586 | less than 0.1% | 439 kg | — |
| — | Paraguay | No sales | — | — | — |
Under the agreement they pay the same duty as Argentina, so they compete on price and volume. The rank is among all suppliers from outside the EU.
Who imports within the EU (2025)
| Rank | Member State | Value | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1st | Germany | €10,215 million | 35.8% |
| 2nd | Netherlands | €5,090 million | 17.9% |
| 3rd | Czechia | €2,587 million | 9.1% |
| 4th | France | €1,844 million | 6.5% |
| 5th | Hungary | €1,278 million | 4.5% |
It is the Member State that declares the import, which is not always where the goods are consumed: the ports of the Netherlands and Belgium receive goods for the whole Union.
What your competitors pay
Of the 11 countries on the list, today 9 pay the same. For the other 2 the duty cannot be compared in a single figure.

The steps, in order
4 steps, in the order they are taken. Each one comes from a block of this sheet.
- 1Confirm the tariff classification with a customs brokerThis whole sheet depends on the line being 8507 60 00. If the line changes, so do the duty, the quota, the rule of origin and the requirements. It is the one step that cannot be skipped.Customs broker
- 2Register as an exporter with ARCA (Argentina)On the Argentine side, the export is lodged with customs, which requires registration in the exporters' register. That registration comes before the first shipment.
- 3Check that the product is originating, and be ready to prove itThe rule for 8506.10 – 8512.20 requires that one of the options it gives be met; not all are needed. Without proof of origin there is no preference, and the MFN duty is paid even if the product qualifies. Origin is proven with the exporter's statement on origin (Annex 3-C). At the start, the transitional certificate of origin of Annex 3-D also applies (notice 2026/875).The exporter makes the statement. A certifying body is involved if the transitional certificate of Annex 3-D is needed.
- 4Check the technical standards and CE marking for the productThe EU assigns these technical product standards to this line (Technical standards for low voltage electrical equipment; Technical standards for civil aircrafts; Technical standards for motor vehicles). Block 5 shows which ones apply to the product. Those requiring CE marking before sale in the EU are Technical standards for low voltage electrical equipment.
